I don't know why you post those kind of things. You know they grate on me.

It depends on what color your ash is... White or red... Red is probably more your color.

You guys are too funny. That was good for a laugh this evening.

So if your ash covered driveway gets holes in it, would those be ash holes?

You guys are way out of hand! :)

But thanks for the explanation of what a "butte" is.

Sounds to me like you need to just shake it off,you'll cool down with the draft that creates.

SteveZee,

Hope you are feeling better, seriously. I don't think I'd want to have to deal with one of those, although I know a few people who have had them.

Thanks Musik,

No worries, it was just a screening that my Doc's been after me to get for a few years. They suggest us old fogies over 50 have a screen to make sure the plumbing is still in good shape. Everything was fine.

Glad to hear that. Yeah, I'm almost 43 and I'm sure that I'll have to start thinking about that stuff in the near future. Every year I feel like I'm fighting the aging process more and more. The problem is that mind mind still thinks I'm twenty something, but my body says otherwise! There's just something about being in you forties....not sure what it is, but you definitely move into a "new" phase of life. At any rate, glad that all is well with you.

That's how it always is! I felt just like I'd always felt (invincable) up to about 46-47 or so. Then I started to feel it a bit in the mornings waking up and taking a little longer to get going. Little sore for the first 30 min. Hey it's a state of mind! Still lovin life!

Now that I turned 44, I seem to notice the soreness in the evenings after a hard day of physical work or play. It is very rare I seek the aid of some ibuprofin though, lol. Glad all is well for you Steve.
